A canyon full of outdoor activities awaits you in Zion - the Virgin River Canyon is the artery through which everyone flows north or south, to trail off for exploration on both sides.
We had heard the rumours before arriving: temperatures in Zion would be very high. When we descended the roads from the eastern side, going down the switchbacks towards Springdale. The afternoon heat was giving us a warm welcome - and we realized we had arrived after the real heat. We did not have time for further exploration that afternoon, and I went up to the Canyon Overlook Trail first thing next morning. Walking the dead-end trail proved to be very easy and fast, and I arrived too early for sunrise. After the crowds we had experienced earlier in Bryce, it was surprising not to see anyone around. Even more surprisingly, I would only see one woman from a distance during the entire two hours I spent walking up and down the edge of these high cliffs, offering a perfect view over the mountain range to the West. Once it started removing the darkness from the enormous rock faces, the sunlight offered a warm, superb view of the mountains, among which I saw the Altar of Sacrifice.
